Ye Qingcheng closed her eyes and sighed.
"Qing'er, thank you for your kindness, Grandmother. Originally, Qing'er did intend to divorce."
However, the prince had explained what happened back then to Qing'er, and Qing'er was no longer angry with him.
Besides, we now have Yu'er, so my granddaughter-in-law is thinking of forgiving him this time.
"Very well! If that's the case, then I won't blame this brat anymore."
"But if that brat dares to bully you again, you can come to me anytime, and I will definitely stand up for you."
"Yes, thank you, Grandmother." Ye Qingcheng was deeply moved upon hearing this. She smiled and stepped forward to affectionately hug the Empress Dowager's arm.
"Yes!" The Empress Dowager nodded with a smile.
Then he looked at Qin Mohan and said, "Alright, you can get up too!"
"Yes, thank you, Grandmother. Grandmother, rest assured, I will never let Qing'er suffer any injustice in the future."
"Hmph, remember what you said. If there is a next time, don't blame me for disowning you, my unfilial grandson."
"Yes, grandson will remember the imperial decree of the Empress Dowager."
"Hmph, get up!"
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."
After Qin Mohan finished speaking, he stood up, looked at Ye Qingcheng, and said with deep affection, "Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Highness. I will never let you down."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "Alright, I understand. Besides, with the Empress Dowager here, if you dare to betray me... I'll..."
"Yes! I would never do that."
Ye Qingcheng nodded slightly, then looked at Ye Jingyu.
"My son, he is your father. Will you forgive him?"
After hearing this, Ye Jingyu looked at Qin Mohan.
Qin Mohan also looked at him, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Wait a moment.
Ye Jingyu said, "I will listen to my mother, but he abandoned me for so many years, I will not forgive him so easily."
"Yu'er...I..."
"You don't need to explain. Whatever the reason, the fact is that you abandoned my mother."
So I can listen to my mother, and I can not hate you, but it's impossible for me to forgive you so easily.
After hearing this, Qin Mohan looked distressed and remorseful, but still nodded.
"Alright, as long as you don't hate your father, that's fine. As for when you'll forgive your father, I don't care."
"snort."
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingyu turned his head away with an arrogant expression.
Upon seeing this, Ye Qingcheng burst out laughing.
"Alright, Yu'er, let's not hold it against him since he's so pitiful and sincere."
"Yes! I will listen to my mother." Ye Jingyu nodded in response.
The Empress Dowager, standing to the side, looked at the family of three and a joyful smile appeared on her face.
At this moment.
An old nanny led several palace maids in.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your birthday banquet is about to begin. Let us help you get dressed!"
"kindness!"
The Empress Dowager nodded, then looked at Ye Qingcheng and the other two.
"Han'er, Qing'er, take Yu'er and go to the Yihe Palace first! All the civil and military officials, young masters and ladies should have arrived by now. Go and enjoy the flowers and scenery first."
"Yes, Grandmother."
After Ye Qingcheng and Qin Mohan finished speaking, the two of them led Ye Jingyu out of the Empress Dowager's palace.
After the three left the palace.
Ye Qingcheng squatted down and looked at Ye Jingyu, asking, "Yu'er, why aren't you wearing the mask your mother gave you?"
"Replying to Mother, it was when Grandfather brought me to see Grandmother this morning that he asked me to take it down."
"Hmm? You mean... you've been wearing it the whole time you've been in the palace, and only took it off today when you saw your imperial great-grandmother?"
"Yes, Mother."
Ye Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this: "That's good."
"Mother, but Grandfather said that today he will announce my identity in front of all the ministers and officials."
"What? Reveal your identity?"
"Yes! That's what my grandfather said. He said that after my announcement, I won't have to wear that mask anymore."
"this…"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng frowned and looked up at Qin Mohan.
Qin Mohan smiled and said, "Your Highness, there's no need to worry. Actually, it's not a bad thing that Father is going to announce our Yu'er's identity to the public today. At least his status is there, and if anyone wants to touch his people, they'll have to think twice."
"Tch, Qin Mohan, even a favored seventh prince like you can be targeted, let alone our Yu'er."
Qin Mohan frowned slightly after hearing this.
Yes! They dare to touch me, let alone my son.
Thinking of this.
Qin Mohan frowned slightly again, but after a moment, two sharp glints flashed in his eyes.
"Your Highness, rest assured! I will definitely protect our Yu'er."
Ye Qingcheng sighed: "Forget it, things have come to this point, there's no point in saying more. It's probably impossible to get Father to retract his decree."
From now on, we can only be more careful. Hopefully, they won't harm Yu'er, or they won't blame me for being ruthless.
As Ye Qingcheng spoke, a cold glint flashed in her eyes, her entire body radiating a fierce aura, her killing intent fully unleashed.
Qin Mohan was taken aback when he saw this, and then his brows furrowed slightly.
Is this really Ye Qingcheng, the second legitimate daughter of the Duke's mansion? Is she really my princess consort?
Such a fierce aura, such a heavy killing intent.
It's absolutely impossible for someone who hasn't experienced life-or-death battles and traversed mountains of blood and corpses to have this ability.
I, the king, went to the battlefield at the age of twelve and killed countless enemies. When I am angry, my killing intent bursts out, but that is all I am capable of.
